TUBULUS Argentus – DB-25 Cable review

The improvement concerning the sound is already remarkable although the Tubulus Argentus DB-25 cable has been in use for only 3 days now. I wonder what is still there to come after the burning in.
I do not want to be misunderstood, I was really not unhappy with the sound before replacing the cable and my estimation has been shared by other “audiophiles” when they listened to my system. But in this case the saying “You don’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone” has to be turned around to something like “You don’t know what you’ve been missing until it’s there”: The soundstage has become even more three-dimensional than before due to the many small details you get aware of now. The music often makes me want to close my eyes, my feet can’t keep from moving with the rhythm, emotions are created, sending shivers down my spine.
I am really very happy that I have seen your cable on the internet by mere coincidence. Thanks to the nice email contact ordering it was absolutely uncomplicated and shipping (for a custom made cable) very fast. Thank you very much for that again.

TUBULUS Libentus Power Cable & Argentus USB Cable V2 review

TUBULUS Libentus – Analog interconnect review

The Libentus is a lively and neutral sounding interlink. Sound staging is deep and wide. Instrument placing is very good and the transparency is perfect. Sublow is very convincing and more importantly, also perfectly controlled. A nice, easy and very musical interlink which sounds much more expensive than it actually is.

TUBULUS Argentus – DB-25 Cable review

The audible improvement with the Tubulus Argentus DB-25 cable can be compared with when you change a stock AC power cord with an audiophile quality one. More detail, more stability of the image, better frequency response, less veiled sound. A global improvement.
The shame is that a preamplifier with a list price in Italy of 12.500 euros is provided with a PC bulk DB-25 cable of few euros, and not with a quality cable as the TUBULUS.

TUBULUS Argentus – Analog interconnect review

The Tubulus Argentus is a lively and very neutral sounding interlink. One of the most neutral interlinks in this group test. Its high is lightly polished so that it never sounds to sharp. Its midrange is open, clean and very direct. You can clearly distinguish the layers in the recordings. The bass is never tickened and the Argentus only lets you hear sub low when there actually is sub low. And moreover it does so with great control. Reference recordings sound superior.

TUBULUS Argentus – Analog Interconnect review

I’m very satisfied with the Tubulus Argentus interconnects.
In the beginning they had to be played in first, but now i’m experiencing a lot more depth and bass. I probably will purchase more Tubulus cables in the near future.

TUBULUS Argentus – Speaker Cable review

With the Tubulus speaker cable you can hear more detail and depth in the music. It all sounds a bit more lively then with a copper speaker cable. Together with the right audio equipment it’s just breathtakingly beautiful!

TUBULUS Argentus – Speaker Cable / Interconnect / USB Cable review

I’ve tested the Tubulus cables extensively and I’m very impressed. A lot more 3D experience in the music! And with the Tubulus usb cable between my Ubuntu network player and dac, it significantly sounds better than with a standard usb cable. Now it’s really time to say goodbye to my cd player. It’s all just very good, because you can actually hear a live performance instead of the speakers. And that’s just what I’m looking for. So I’m very satisfied with the Tubulus interconnects, speaker cable and usb cable.

TUBULUS Argentus – Analog Interconnect review

I connected the Tubulus interconnect between my Sennheiser HDVD DAC and my tube amplifier with new tubes and I must say it sounds really great! What the Tubulus cables reveal is a vivid and clear sound and above all it brings more depth.
So I’m very satisfied with them!

TUBULUS Argentus Cables review

TUBULUS makes audio cables for the high-end audiophile. Several standard cables, but also custom cables. For me they made some very difficult cables, such as the power cable between the Pass Labs XP-20 power supply box and the preamplifier. But also the data and sync BNC cables between the two Totaldac Dual units. And they had to be exactly 75 ohms, no more, no less.
And then the most complicated ones: The two XLR adaptors for the Burmester 956 MK II. Two of those big whoppers in one XLR housing. If you still can guarantee your high quality, you must be really good….!
So… If I want a really good cable, I’ll send a message to TUBULUS.

TUBULUS Argentus – Power Cable review

I’m very happy with the TUBULUS power cord for my Luxman M375 and I think I want one more for my Pre-amp.
You make a very good power cord and very good products.
Thank you

TUBULUS Argentus – Power & Speaker Cable review

Review Mono and Stereo www.monoandstereo.com
TUBULUS cables kept the pace of the music intact and have revealed enough details and anchor points to keep my interest, even in a long listening sessions. I’ve might not have been sweetly seduced as with Skogrand SC Beethoven speaker cables, but hey they are multiplied by factor of 40x. Still, TUBULUS Argentus power and speakers cables still created a palpable illusion that was on the musical site and in the range of cables once priced far above its given price.

Medieval music might come as to simplistic for some, but in its simplicity it shows the true complexity when needed to be reproduced rightly. Un-amplified and in recorded in natural acoustic space the real reference can only be set as such. With both TUBULUS cables the most important building blocks of recreating the illusion of live musical event were there in an interesting, capable amount.

Conclusion

TUBULUS Argentus power and speakers cables comes with down to earth pricing and performance, that ignites music listening with enough pace to make it profoundly interesting. It’s a solid fact high-end audio cables makes all the difference. The questions is only how much and at what price?

TUBULUS Argentus power and speakers cables performance not only truly match its price range, but surpasses it by far. TUBULUS team managed to keep the musicality untouched while still following pace of the music with an impressive speed and timing. Rarely seen at this price rage the potency of immersion into the musical events was something to talk about very positively.

TUBULUS Argentus power and speakers cables should for sure be more then worthy of the attention for those willing to step into the high-end audio cabling or upgrade their existing high-performance wire connection.

TUBULUS Argentus – Analog Interconnect & USB Cable review

I use a set of Tubulus Argentus interconnects between a Teac UD-501 DAC and a VanMedevoort CA460 pre amplifier and the Tubulus USB cable between my Macbook Pro, powered by a Paul Hynes SR7 power supply and the DAC.
The Tubulus cables are handmade pieces of technological art.
Besides the fact that they look real fancy they provide a unsurpassed sound quality in which you can point out each and every detail in the stereo spectrum.
What is the use of playing lossless FLAC or WAV files if you play them thru a lossy copper cable? Therefore I full heartedly recommend the Tubulus cables.
One happy camper

TUBULUS Argentus – Subwoofer Cable review

After some playing time I have listened carefully to the Tubulus subwoofer cables. I compared them with the Nordost Bassline SW cables which are about the same pricing as the Tubulus Argentus subwoofer cables. It is difficult to compare subwoofer cables, but my impression is that the Tubulus is cleaner and more defined.

TUBULUS Argentus – Analog Interconnect review

I’m very satisfied about the Tubulus interconnect, much more than I thought I would.
Very detailed cable that I’m sure can’t be found elsewhere in the current market for this price. So I’m very happy I made a good investment.
Thank you.

TUBULUS Argentus – Speaker Cable / Interconnect / USB Cable review

I have the Tubulus interconnect, usb cable and speaker cable in my possession for a month now.
The great detail and placement is just scary.
Sometimes a little clean, shortly after connecting the new cables.

TUBULUS Argentus – Analog Interconnect review

The Tubulus interconnect is just brilliant. The finishing and materials that are used are great.
The first thing that comes to mind when listening to the Tubulus interconnect is ease, openness, clarity and musicality.
When the Tubulus interconnect has had the necessary playing time, it’s time for some critical listening … We can be very short about this Tubulus: it sounds just as detailed as other high end quality silver cables. The sound is: open, honest, true to life with a touch of warmth. What makes it gentle and pleasant.
The real strength of the Tubulus is vocals and separation of instruments. In sound balance as in soundstage. Everything is very natural and there is never a hint of confusion or agitation in the sound.
In short, ease everywhere. And that’s a strength that you only find in more expensive high-end cables.

TUBULUS Argentus – Speaker Cable / Interconnect / Power Cable review

It’s very nice to be able to listen to the Tubulus Argentus – Interconnect, – Power cable and – Speaker cable in my own environment and on my own audio set. After opening the box I can only conclude that they look very nice. They exude sheer quality: beautiful connectors, beautiful braiding and beautifully fitted and finished.
First impression Tubulus:
After connecting the cables I’ve let them play in the background during the day. In the evening I played various music for an hour. The experience is great. This is so beautiful! Ease, space, detail. But what is even more important: on a scale of authenticity perception and listening pleasure I gave my audio set an 8 and with the Tubulus cables it’s definitely worth a 9 to me.
Into the music:
Each time the circumstances allowed me to sit down and test the Tubulus cables I was fascinated by the music. I played music I know very well and every time I was surprised by the tranquility and spaciousness. Playing acoustic music it’s the purity and authenticity that strikes me. When playing heavy numbers you don’t tend to turn down the volume (sorry neighbors .. ). And when playing electronic music you really notice the spaciousness.
Conclusion:
The Tubulus cables are really serious stuff. Beautifully made and wonderful music playback. For my audio installation, a real added value to enjoy music.

TUBULUS Argentus – Analog Interconnect review

The Tubulus Argentus interconnect sounds beautiful. Very beautiful.In fact, I’ve never heard my audio set sound so beautiful! Not the sharpness that I expected from a silver cable. I’m enjoying it immensely! The Tubulus interconnect filters nothing away and is a tremendous asset with great ease, space and detail. Tubulus delivers a very fine product.
Is the Tubulus Argentus Interconnect true value for its money? For me it sure is. I have spent more money on things that yielded less improvement. For me the improvement must be in proper relation to the price. And that’s certainly the case. The Tubulus also performs excellent compared to the alternatives. Alternatives which are often mass products and not handicrafted. The Tubulus can easily compete with MIT or Siltech.

TUBULUS Argentus – USB Cable review

In my search for a high-end USB cable I had on trial for a week the AudioQuest Carbon, AudioQuest Coffee and Tubulus Argentus USB cable. Before I listened to them, I’ve let them play for a night.
Listening test AudioQuest Carbon :
In comparison with a standard USB cable, the sound was a lot more open, more details .
Listening test AudioQuest Coffee:
Here it began to sound really interesting. All just a bit more of everything (like effects in the music). Break in time was the shortest.
Listening test Tubulus Argentus:
Initially the same as the Coffee only it seemed as if the high tones were less present. What didn’t bother me. Gradually it became clear that the micro detail in the music was easier to hear and that there were certainly high tones but with more tranquility. It was also like being there with the performing artists.
And when I played the “2 meter sessions” CD the moment came for me that I knew “this is it”! The 3D-soundstage or how you may call it was very special, Here the Tubulus really stood out from the rest. I’ve also listened to the Buena Vista Social Club with the Coffee and Argentus Black and the conclusion was the same for me. With the Tubulus Argentus, it’s like being in the same space as the performing artist. Which is great! The sound of the piano has also more depth.
Conclusion :
I think I have been clear enough, My choice is the Tubulus Argentus USB cable!

TUBULUS Argentus – USB Cable review

I was quite sceptic about special audio USB-cables. But after trying the Tubulus Argentus USB-cable I realize it’s no fable. This cable made the biggest difference a cable has ever made in my audio setup! And I have heard many. Everything fell into place. The sound is very clean and revealing with a great stereo image and depth.
